Frequently asked questions
What is the source unit in this conversion?
The source unit is kiloliters per minute (kL/min). The Kiloliter (kL) is a unit of volume. The Minute (min) is a unit of time.
What is the destination unit in this conversion?
The destination unit is oil barrels per second (bbl/s). The Oil Barrel (bbl) is a unit of volume. The Second (s) is a unit of time.
How do I convert kiloliters per minute to oil barrels per second?
Multiply the kiloliters per minute value by 0.10483 to get oil barrels per second. For example, 10 kL/min × 0.10483 = 1.0483 bbl/s.
Is the kiloliters per minute to oil barrels per second conversion exact?
It's exact under the SI-based volume and time definitions used here, since both units convert to cubic meters per second through fixed, non-rounded factors.
Where is this conversion commonly used?

About this conversion
This page converts kiloliters per minute (kL/min) into oil barrels per second (bbl/s), two units of volumetric flow rate.
The Kiloliter (kL) is a unit of volume. The Minute (min) is a unit of time.
The Oil Barrel (bbl) is a unit of volume. The Second (s) is a unit of time.
The formula is bbl/s = kL/min × 0.10483, based on the fixed relationship between these two flow rate units.
Flow rate is calculated as a volume unit divided by a time unit, so every combination of a volume unit and a time unit forms a valid, exact flow rate unit.
